re: litter, I really like the white one with the red tattoo wing markings! He/she will be gorgeous, I bet! (Not that the others won't, I just think that one is my fave out of the group~)
There aren't any new Pokemon, but there are old Pokemon to be found in the newest region.
I'm just past the second gym in my game, its fun so far but I'm not as hooked as I was in past games for some reason. (Granted, a lot of other things are on my mind.)
Yeah, I haven't really been able to get into the games since Gold/Silver, but I kept buying them thinking I'd suddenly get the urge. I finally just sold my DS. >_>
IDK maybe I just don't have the attention span anymore, haha.
